If i have a canon mount samyang 8mm lens (shaved) and i set it up on the nodal ninja r1 panohead, is the following possible?

Can i take this lens/head combination and just attach it with no tweaking to a canon 350D, 5D and 5D mark ii? Or does the lens/head need to be adjusted for each camera?

I own the 350D but can occasionally use the 5D and 5D mark ii through work, that's why i was hoping to be able to use this setup on all 3 cameras.

Thanks

I assume you will take 3 shots around for shaved Samyang 8mm on 5D and 5DII and 4 shots around for 350D. The NPPs or LPPs are different by 1.25mm according to Michel Thoby.

This difference may not cause problems in most outdoor panos. It may be a problem indoors with nearby objects.
However, if you take 4 shots around for all cameras, there will not be any difference.
If you want to adjust quickly for the difference in NPPs, you can provide me your NPP data for 3 shots around and 4 shots around, I can make you a custom rail stop to remember the settings.
